The National Film Board presents some FREE Francophone films for your enjoyment this Wednesday evening at the Toronto Mediatheque. The program (consisting of three shorts – two documentary and one animated) is focused on French-speaking Canada.
First up is a 6 minute animated film, Bruce Alcock’s Vive la rose. Next is Pis nous autres dans tout ça? (So, Where Do We Fit In?), Andréanne Germain’s film about what happens when a couple of people wave Franco-Ontarians flags around on the Plains of Abraham in Quebec City during St. Jean-Baptiste celebrations. The last film in the program will be Le chœur d’une culture (Together in Harmony) by Marie-France Guerette. Described as ‘poignant and charming’, this film is about an Edmonton-based choir invited to participate in Quebec City’s 400th anniversary.
So if you’re interested, head on down to the Mediatheque (150 John St @ Richmond) this Wednesday March 10th at 6:30pm. Films will be screened in French with English subtitles. For more information, please visit the NFB website.
